Diversity refers to the presence of different backgrounds, identities, experiences and perspectives within a group, organization or society. It can include culture, gender, ethnicity, disability, age, religion, sexuality, neurodiversity and many other forms of human difference.
The topic is highly relevant because diverse organizations are often better equipped to innovate, solve problems and understand the needs of broader communities and customers. Diversity also plays a central role in workplace culture, leadership and employee wellbeing. Organizations that value diversity and inclusion can strengthen trust, engagement and long-term performance while creating environments where more people can thrive.
